Fab Freebie: Island Style

We’re leaving the mainland and heading for the islands for this week’s freebie giveaway. Well, I guess I don’t mean that literally (unfortunately) but we’re leaving it up to So’mace Lifestyle, a new design boutique in Honolulu, to bring the Hawaiian experience to all of us.

somacelifestyleshop

So’mace Lifestyle is a new gallery & shop spawned from a design service that started in 2004 by former New Yorkers Kaypee Soh and Edward Macey. The new boutique, which has a focus on sustainable and green design, is chock full of great art for your walls (wallpaper), for your floor (rugs), for your dreams (bedding) and- here’s where the prize comes in – for your sofa (pillows).

somacepillowsoncouch

Kaypee Soh’s line of original pillows (view full collection here and here) is a mix of nature-inspired florals and graphic retro designs, all hand-printed in Washington state and hand-sewn in Hawaii. They feature 100% linen covers with a 20″ x 20″ feather/down and hypoallergenic insert. Plus, with two different, coordinated designs on each side, you can give your couch a fresh look just by flipping the pillow over. And one lucky reader will have the chance to do just that…

somacepillowstacked1

To win your choice of any one of the six pillows shown below, just comment on this post with the words “ALOHA” by Wednesday, February 18th at 8pm EST. And since Hawaii is such a popular honeymoon spot, we’d also love to hear where you went (or are hoping/planning to go) on your honeymoon. As you probably know, we actually left the lower 48 and headed the other direction for an Alaskan honeymoon. Not quite as warm, but it managed to be just as romantic.

So’mace Lifestyle will ship this great prize anywhere, so don’t hold back all you international pillow lovers! We’ll be picking one winner using random.org and announcing it later in the week as usual. Now, what’s Hawaiian for “good luck”?

    I would love to someday do a combination Napa and then fly onto Maui/Kauai or Maui/Lanai honeymoon- sounds wonderful! Of course, I’d love to do the Greek Islands and lots of wonderful, fun places, but Hawaii/Napa seems a bit more realistic.

    We had a two-part honeymoon — part one in our native CA wonder, Yosemite National Park, and part two over in Orlando and (you guessed it) DisneyWorld! For our two year anniversary this May we’re heading to Hawaii… so it’s totally appropriate for me to leave an “ALOHA!” here!

    We were both penniless students when we got married, which equated to no honeymoon at the time!
    But for our 7th anniversary we hope to make up for the lack of previous honeymoon travel and visit the Taj Mahal in India and also check out the foothills of the Himalayas! I have been dreaming forever!

    My dream honeymoon would be to go to Venice (or just Italy in general) or to Santorini (or just Greece in general. That would be amazing. Otherwise, I think a road trip revolving around food in America would be amazing as well.

    Aloha! Well, we didn’t go on a honeymoon, immediately… in fact, it’s questionable whether we’ve really gone on one yet (nearly 5 years later). But we did spend 4 days in Honolulu when my husband had a job there (he works in construction – he got to spend 5 weeks there without me) and then 6 days in Italy with my family last year, so I guess that qualifies as sort of a honeymoon :o)
